  Corrupt project -Help!!!

  Posted by John Reis on November 7, 2007 at 6:44 pm

  I had a corrupt project after moving my project from Symphony to Media Composer.

  This is the advice I followed
  Exit Media Composer, then open your OMFI MediaFiles folder and delete the two files called msmFMID and msmMMOB. When you restart Media Composer, they will be rebuilt.

  Now my Avid wont even start up.

  Hi,

  What happens when you try to open Avid? Do you get an error message, or does the system start to open and then stops? If it tries, what does it say at the bottom of the splash screen right before it stops?

  good luck,
  Carl

  There are 2 Partitions it seeems to freeze on when it begins scanning for OMFI files.

  I get different results each time.

  Sometimes it says the database file may be corrupt. Other times it just freezes

  Error Message reads :

  An error occurred reading database file for the directory I/OMIMediaFiles’.Exception; OmfHp_Init_Failed

  The database file msmMMOB.mbd may be corrupt

  It succesfully rebuilt the Media Databases on every partition except for 2.
